You should stop drinking.

Slightly buzzed on white wine, I told her that she wouldn't feel the need to brag so much if she were actually confident. I then said, Money talks; class whispers.
She was speechless.
I love being an adult.


You have done, but I have fantasized about.


Well, OP, are you awake yet? Hungover? Cringing? I would hope so.

You “love being an adult”? Do you have an example of behaving like one? This vignette wasn’t it.
Was her judgmental put down perhaps a comment that you were drinking too much — and becoming an ugly drunk?

OK, so you got drunk and caused a scene in which you told off your 60-something (or older) aunt.

OP, what was achieved? Will your aunt change? Unlikely. She is an older woman with a disagreeable personality who has probably been this way her whole life. The reason the rest of your family lets her ramble is that they understand this. It would have been a lot more "classy" to just bite your tongue and try to avoid the aunt. But now you are the drunk who told off an old lady.

Neither of you is looking good here.

You, OP, are not one to speak of "class."

Bragging about telling your aunt she has no class. The irony, indeed.

Topic title should be AITA? Yes.


You get drunk with your aunt ????


OP didn’t mention Aunt was drinking. Just OP. I wonder if OP often gets aggressive and confrontational while drinking. And she didn’t tell her to shut up she said some words that didn’t make much sense. People are probably wondering if she’s ok.
